G'day,
Looks like it will be the Baillons Crake's Summer in Melbourne.
I saw the famous Baillons Crake of the West Gate Park not long ago, than I
saw up to 4 in the Carrum Eastern Treatment Plant and also 2 more at the
bird Hide in Edithvale Last week.
And yesterday I found a Baillons Crake in Albert Park Lake.
Very good indeed as I'm compiling a Birdlist for this park.
The bird was seen by my self and other birder at 6:15 PM in one of the
"Pollution control grassy Pounds" in front of the island in the Golf course
Side of the park (exactly location given on request).
Also in the same spot I have good views of a Water-Rat just a few metres
from the Crake, also a Hobby and a Little grassbird. Not bad for an
artificial lake surrounded by introduced trees in the middle of the city.
Reegards
Alex
